And each piece of good fortune must be paid for by the pound
I've become so cynical these days,
I don't know how it started but it won't go away
See the lines around my eyes,
See the sarcasm in my smile,

You'd better smile
Smile [x15]
Cause that's all that you've got left,
Your life's a mess, you've been cut adrift

You'd better smile [x2]
I feel like a dalek inside,
Everything's gone grey but used to be so black and white
See the lines around my eyes,
See the sarcasm in my smile,

You'd better smile
Smile [x15]
I've become so cynical these days,
